    Books about the Civil War

    What are some good books about the Military history of the Civil War? I am looking for some to read. Right now I have this called A Great Civil War: A Military and Political History, 1861-1865 https://books.google.com/books/about...d=BuFIAAAACAAJ

    Is Davis a traitor: or, Was secession a constitutional right previous to the war of 1861?

    Someone who starts his article by declaring the southern commanders heroes probably isn't very trustworthy with regards to the question if secession was legal. Which it isn't.

    Co Aytch wrote by Sam Watkins, and All for the Union by Elish Hunt Rhodes are really good.

    Keep in mind that Is Davis A Traitor was written in 1866.
